I will now be naming my reverb returns “Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry, and Raspberry”

Multiple reverbs on each bus, and delay plugins running through the reverb to soften the repetitions and make them blend into the overall mix better. Super useful and intuitive.

Is CLA sending the return from the delays.. into a 'regular channel' ( ie which has the same aux sends), and sending the delay to the reverb THAT way? (Ok, on my Mackie 1202 the effects returns go straight to the master buss..)

This man is a total artist, his methods and technique are not only fascinating but awe inspiring. We are witnessing one of histories genius at work here.

WTF just happened?! Reverb and FX are my Holy Grail. I just learned more about this in fourteen minutes than in the last four years. This man is such a great teacher. And now I want a big ass console with $75,000 worth of outboard reverbs ; - )

Introducing CLA One-Knob. Just turn the knob and get 4 different reverbs, a quarter note delay, a slap echo, a 3k bump, some stereo chorus, and some analog overdrive warmth. Put it on anything, including the master bus, just like Chris! LoL

you can't imitate that it has nothing to do with the console, he just has a talent to get everything out of a song ... admire this guy🙏

Phil X was definitely on this track. That BV and those solo licks are unmistakeable.

Love CLA! His passion is contagious and his sense of humor is greatly appreciated. Keep rocking!

This is probably the most useful mixing video I have ever watched.

I was mixing multiple reverbs in the 80's but had no idea what I was doing, and there was no youtube or anyone sharing knowledge, and all knowledge was behind locked studio doors. Chris, man, that song is incredible. Wow.

55 year old sound tech/engineer/mixer/producer here. Been using multiple hardware classic reverbs intertwined on single channels/groups/multiple groups/stereo mix... & multiple delays interwined with those reverbs since my I got my first Yamaha R1000/Rev 7/SPX90, Lexicon PCM 40/60 reverbs and Roland SDE3000/RE201 Tape Space Echo, Deltalab Effectron & Korg SDD3000 delays back in the early to later 80's. F**** ME I'm gettin' old!

Perhaps you can answer a common question people have. When he has the vocals solo he can pull up any of the fx return faders and you can hear the vocals being effected. So the vocals are being sent to every fx unit. Then he does the same with the drums and gtr solo. So how does he set the fx returns faders for the drums without it stuffing up a different balance he wants for other instruments? Something im not getting when it comes to the routing it seems.

CLA is Mixing effects and the same time creating a new effects, purely Genius

I'm also closely watching the way CLA speaks - and the mannerisms... There is something fascinating about it. The pauses...the inhaling I'm a sound engineer, but I'm also in the film/dialogue world - so he defiantly has a special rhythm going on.

You only need to reference from a sweet spot. You don’t need to keep your ears there for the entire mix. Also, the more you know your room the less important that specific spot becomes. I’m sure at certain points in the mix CLA will center himself and take a good listen.

I feel like I should be paying for this demonstration. Geez, such a good teacher.

CLA is king ! I love watching him and everytime inspires me to go and work on something and be creative !

Absolutely BIG difference in Sound and Dimension! Great workflow and techniques🤘

This has opened up a new perspective altogether for me to mix my songs! Lots of love and respect :)

It's really amazing how Chris combines the effects of delay and reverb in one nice sound

Thank you soooo much!!! larger then life mixing! sheer bliss;)

Oh man, that SONY Reverb alone makes his iconic drum sound...just listening to that Reverb I know is a CLA mix, the Bricasti adds some character too but for me that SONY is key. An eye-opener for sure. The plugin developper that makes a software emulation of that Reverb will be my hero, and of course it will be an instant buy for me.

So GOOD !!!!

Nice video. Honestly - the magic is in his ears. Setting this up in a DAW is actually very straight forward and I would argue that with an 8 fader controller you can actually do much more than on a console the way CLA is doing it.

It was inspiring !...

he's a great teacher

I am a complete newbe. Chris lost me at "mixing with depth". I will come back to this video in a few years. Right now Chris might as well be teaching Hebrew. I am lost and confused. But I do admire his studio.

I actually achieve this quite simply. The CLA vocal actually ends up on most of my lead vocals (I know…🤦‍♂️) so when you send that off to your verb buss, the verb is seeing the delays as well. Obviously, guitar and keyboard delays don’t get the same treatment…but I usually haul those off to echoboy or something and dump THAT delay buss into the reverb as well. It’s not rocket science…but it does make a massive difference.

Actually a good song that almost all other tutorials lack, A-Plus!
